A. a large surface area-to-volume ratio

B. ability to form stacks known as rouleaux

C. a convex shape allowing for more efficient transport of oxygen

D. ability to bend and flex when entering capillaries

Answer:

The correct answer is - option C.

RBC cells are biconcave in the shape it is form shape of dub bell in general. These cells are small, round. The biconcave shape of the blood cells helps in the flow of the blood easily and these cells have no nucleus like other cells to have high amount of hemoglobin that is a pigment that carry oxygen and other gases for easy gaseous exchange.

Your first cousin died of tay-sachs disease (autosomal recessive, incidence 0.09%). you are not affected, nor is anyone else in
AlexFokin [52]
<span>25%

   Starting from my First cousin family, I know for sure that the Uncle is is a carrier (Aa) and he must have married a wife who is also a carrier (Aa) and that is how they got an affected son. Thus, this leads to the fact that either both of my grandparents are carriers (Aa x Aa) or only one of them is a carrier (Aa x AA). As a result, the chances that my mom (who is related to the uncle who has a defected child) is a carrier is either (2/3 or 1/2) depending if my grandparents genotype, respectively. Thus, if my mom chances of being a carrier is 1/2 then my chance of being a carrier is 1/4. (given that my dad is not a carrier b/c CF is a rare disease) However, if my mom chance of being a carrier is 2/3 then my chance of being a carrier is (2/3)x(1/2)=(1/3) As a result, I could either be 1/4 or 1/3. But since the answer only provide the choice of 1/4 and not 1/3. This leave 25% is the correct answer.</span>

What is the relationship between genes DNA and proteins
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

Although you might have heard people talk about a gene for red hair, green eyes or other characteristics, it's important to remember that genes code for proteins, not traits. While your genetic makeup does indeed determine physical traits like eye color, hair color and so forth, your genes affect these traits indirectly by way of the proteins created via DNA.

Hopefully, this answer helped! :D
